Personal Narrative: The Egyptian War

If I could go back to any time in the world, I would go back to France in October 1944 on the Western Front. World War Two has always interested me. Being able to see the revolutionary weapons would be incredible. I would also love to take part in such a historic and epic war. War is a horrible event that plays a major part in human development.

After the war was over the family left the internment camp and came home and everything changed. “When we came back after the war it was fall and the house was still ours. The trees on the streets were taller than we remembered, and the cars more run down, and the rosebush our mother had once planted alongside the narrow gravel path they led up to the front steps of our house was no longer there” (Otsuka 106). This describes how during the years they were gone the entire street changed. When the family entered the house it smelled really bad. “We did not care. The paint was peeling away from the walls and the window frames were black with rot. Shreds of lace curtain dangled in front of the soot-covered panes and the floor was littered with

We were trapped in a house. There were redcoats surrounding the house. All we had was a bayonet and a knife. John was almost dead. He might as well be dead, having been stabbed, shot 3 times and attacked by rabbits (Don’t ask). John pointed out the window and said, “Look”.

turning my head again I saw Simon dive to my aid. He did not utter a

Plenty of people were talking about what had happened, from the soldiers and leadership of 1st Armored Division, to the families waiting for us back in Friedberg, Germany. The incident had even been reported on in the Middle Eastern edition of the Stars and Stripes newspaper, being referred to as a showdown. But not everyone was there. And if it were not for my squads training, cohesiveness, and diligent house search during a mission to check and clear supposedly empty houses in the north eastern sector in the Iraqi town of Tal Afar, it could have been that no one would have ever even known about the guy in the hole in the wall. As it turned out, though, the first house we entered to gain access to the roof in order to pull security for

I used to live in a city called Mosul that was located in the Northern Iraq. In that city, there was a lot of gangs and bad people who broke laws. It was also a city of criminals. Justice was not a major thing in that city. I and my family had to live there because my dad loved his job. Which was working and building churches? I lost my dad when I was seven years old.

During the rule of Thutmose III, Egypt gained tremendous wealth, enjoyed a period of great prosperity called “Pax Egyptica”— a period of peace within Egypt, and began 16 military campaigns, overtaking about 350 cities. Inside of Egypt, there was peace, and using some of the wealth he gained, he set up beautiful temples around Egypt. He was a military genius. Not only did he conquer so much, but by the end of his reign, he had earned respect from not only all of Egypt, but he had earned respect from all of the region, including his enemies— because of his respectful and fair way of treating those he

This decision appears very simple and straight-forward to people living in the year 2015. But what is so clear today was definitely a very tough decision in the seventeenth century years. Times have changed tremendously, and some even for the better. Being there I know I would have seen things very differently. The men now days don’t fight on the battlefields suppose to how the men did back in the earlier years. They have no idea what it’s like to be in a real war.

Working in a retail store in the mall has taught me many things. I also learned a lot of new

"The Korean War was a conflict between the U.S and Korea that..." My eyes felt heavy. The class had started 10 minutes ago and I was already falling asleep. It seemed like my teachers could drone on forever and it didn’t help that I was especially tired that day. I tried to force myself to stay awake but it was a losing battle. The intervals of nodding off were getting bigger and bigger until.

Whenever the topic of Ancient Egypt is breached, a few generic topics are instantly recalled: maybe it’s the pyramids, King Tut’s tomb, maybe even the Exodus? Before Egypt became the Egypt that most everyone knows of now, it was a wildly disjointed, disunited preamble to the great empire it became known for. King Narmer was the factor that ultimately changed that. Unifier of Egypt and founder of the First Dynasty, Narmer set into motion a series of events that ultimately shaped Egypt into the modern republic it is now. In this episode of ‘A History of the World in 101 Objects,’ we will delve into the history behind this legendary Stele, explore the ancient and current significance of such a production, and attempt to lift the veil on

Growing up Kevin lived in a small farmer town about 40 minutes out of detroit. “Ill admit I was a little mischievous kid who got into a fair amount of trouble.” “Me and my siblings always used to fight with each other .” Kevin loved sports especially playing with his older brother Kyle. He got the chance to play sports and he loved it. He ended up getting a scholarship to a small college Kent St. After 1 year of college Kevin Davison decided to finally join the air force. “I decided to serve my country because, it was what I thought I needed to do with my life at the time.” Kevin stated.

It was bright light, literally bright one. as if the sun was shone on my face, I didn't feel my face burn though . at a distant point, as if from the far infinity I could hear metal clashing with each other. was I in a war? , oh c'mon this is the 21st century, I reminded self, not a medieval era when I was born right, so a sword fight was out of possibility. funny enough, I felt at least that conscious. my head was ringing. the metal clashing sound seems to be coming from somewhere nearby me .near my legs. I could hear feel someone stooping over me. the glare of light eased. I cleared my head . the world came to zoom in . An operation theater. I was in operation theater !. oh my !how did I end up here. what happened

The responsibility of a peacemaker is to settle differences through compromise and negotiation before they erupt into violence. Conflicting views do not have to bring about fighting. War is an irreversible solution to a problem. China have different vision of the Chinese model. They have cultural difference between China and the United States of America. China a democratic model to a Western model. “The world is divided in countless way, by seas, cultures, languages, religions, and wealth, but the most contentious divide is that of the political borders. Traced back to the Early Egyptian Dynasties and have shaped the history that we know today. As a result of their long history, borders are ever changing and continually disputed. Some disputes
